LOVE LOVE the workers at the cafe! My friend & I went in out of curiosity and found that the staff member working behind the cafe was so friendly, hilarious, even helped us pick out a spot for our evening activities and turned out to be a hidden gem thanks to their recommendation— won’t ever forget it ❤️.
The curry was delicious and really met up to our expectations, mixed with the rice, meat and egg it was perfect! Totally recommend!
We appreciate the kind gestures that the other staff member offered, she had frizzy hair, whimsical style, amazing customer care.
Cafe atmosphere was to die for, very minimalistic but chique. If you’re looking for photos to upload while eating this is the place.
Vibrant art market with a few restaurants attached. Imagine if muji and a farmers market combined with ikeas cafe concept - much more elevated, of course!
The food quality was superb, the portions were small for the price. Ordering happens at the counter, then they serve you at your table of choice.
On a Saturday afternoon, assuming it’s as busy as it gets, the service was underwhelming likely due to the amount of staff and space constraints.

I was very pleased to see hamburg set as it is tough to find a place that serves this in NYC. I was shocked to taste and be completely let down. I agree with J W’s review. Pretty much everyone in the set lacked much flavor. Only bright spot in the set was the rice. At $35, I expected much better quality of food and maybe bigger portion. I would not be trying the hamburg set again. With that said, 2 people working were very nice and friendly.

Decided to take a break from browsing the beautiful home goods at Cibone and try this cafe in the same space. The Hamburg Set is a dream. The patty was very juicy and beautifully cooked. The accompanying sides keep every bite interesting. And lastly, the cake was soft as a cloud and the filling was fluffy. Excited to come back.

I’ve had the hamburg set a few times, which is delicious every time. Love all the side dishes that come with it, offers great balance.
I’ve also tried the hojicha milk and the homemade ginger ale which were both really flavorful!
Cafe Ote is a go to for me in the neighborhood. Love the food, the drinks, and the vibes here :)
